Full Description
Discover the cultural and natural beauty of southern Mauritius on this immersive full-day tour. Begin with a visit to Grand Bassin (Ganga Talao), the island’s most sacred Hindu site, set in the peaceful highlands and surrounded by temples and statues. Take time to explore the area and learn about its spiritual significance.
Continue to Alexandra Falls for refreshing views over the lush landscapes of the Black River Gorges National Park. Enjoy scenic viewpoints, fresh mountain air, and short walks in one of Mauritius’ most beautiful protected areas, ideal for nature lovers and photography.
The journey then leads to the historic Bois Chéri Tea Plantation, the oldest tea estate in Mauritius. Visit the tea museum, learn about the tea-making process, and enjoy a tea tasting while overlooking rolling green tea fields. An optional stop for lunch at a local restaurant allows you to sample authentic Mauritian flavors.
Later in the day, head to Gris Gris Beach, famous for its dramatic cliffs and powerful ocean waves. Unlike the calm lagoons found elsewhere on the island, Gris Gris offers a striking view of the wild southern coastline and is a perfect photo stop.
